Hi gang, Not to change the subject but... How is it that my 1984 Vanagon speedometer can read 10 mph too high? I am riding on 185/14 inch tires which I think are stock size. Yes. When the speedometer reads 70 mph I am actually only doing 60. I don't get it. Any thoughts? I ain't talking kilometers here. My speedometer has both mph and kilometers indicated on the dial but the primary "large" numbers are mph. Bambzooled in Elk, Ron |
